Description

Para-Mentors Open Lab was designed to help paramedic students and graduates get more hands-on practice time with equipment. It can be very challenging to develop the practical skills needed to be successful in school and hiring - we're here to help!

Here's how it works: a group of learners can come in with one of our Mentors and use our facility and equipment, just like you would at college if you booked "lab" time. During this session, you can practice skills like med admin, assessments like RTS, or even run scenarios. Our Mentor will be there to help with equipment and give some feedback.

Equipment available:

  • iSimulate Cardiac Monitor (Zoll X-Series / LIFEPAK LP-15)
  • Symptom relief - practice medications, “sharps” supplies
  • Airway management - oxygen, BVMs, airway adjuncts
  • Trauma supplies - dressings, tourniquets, splints, sagar
  • Stretcher and scoop stretcher
  • Adult, pediatric, neonate mannequins
  • Skill sheets and reference material
  • An expert Mentor to guide you!

We can offer this at a lower price than our full "Scenario Practice" service, which involves running full-length, structured scenarios with 2 Mentors and private GRS feedback. If you're nearing the end of school or going through service scenario testing, Scenario Practice is the better service for you. Open Lab is meant as a replacement for school lab time to help develop skills and assessments without the stress of maximizing scenario time.

Don't wait until testing to hone your skills - train now and have an advantage at OSCE time!
